8/10 Very good

Far too noisy: didn’t get quiet until 1:00am and got woken up at 5:00am
Phil, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Not great.

Very dirty. Tv was busted and had weird mold spots in the first room. Second room had roaches. Hotel desk clerk was extremely nice and they gave us a refund no issues. Decent people just a terrible hotel. The pool looked decent.

Bad neighborhood
Michael, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

I made the mistake of not changing the number of people for the booking and when I went to the front desk to ask for more toilet paper & towels I was told they couldn’t give any due to the booking being for only 1 person. I would not stay here again
ADRIENNE, 1-night trip

Rayna, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Drug dealers on site

Drug dealers +hookers in room 227 the worst day I’ve ever had in a hotel and I’m a platinum member with Hotels.com. The Front Desk girl did her best to try to bring down the noise in the property, but constant fights. People knocking on my door by mistake as they were clearly Seling drugs, and hookers next-door. I was not able to get any sleep and it was pretty late. Check out, but I left early. Don’t waste your money in this property. It’s pretty scary.
Cheryl, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good Value

Room was nice for the price. Floors were slippery. Other than that, was a good place to crash. Nice pool.
Mary, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible place
jg, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

OK for Quick Over-nighter w/ VERY LOW Expectations

Desk personnel were very good. Room had a couple issues with broken items, for example the toilet paper holder, but was clean and comfortable. Breakfast advertised, but I went by at 6:10am and there was cold cereal, a coffee machine, really old pump creamer containers (creamer separated or overly thick), and a juice machine.

8/10 Very good

They should have better toiletries and better shower heads
Ashley, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Staff was nice, cleaned my room daily, but shower was disgusting the water had rotted out the metal door frame and allows water to go into living space behind the wall. Room shouldnt be rented it needs to be fixed whole wall is open and rotting mold and whatever else inside it. Only stayed due to no refund policy 2 nights for work.
William, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Dewond, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

I called before we came and was told the pool was open, i called3 times to make sure and was told it was open to arrive and the pool be closed
Willie, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Worst Decision You Can Make.

The property was nasty. Disgusting the sheets were horrible. They say they have breakfast, but do not have breakfast. They tell you to get cereal with no milk. The staffs attitude is not customer friendly. The guy threatened to call the police on me even after I proceeded to show him I had the money for my room.

6/10 Good

Besides the value of the room which was fair for the condition it was in and a few little critters (roaches) it could of been worse... I guess it's true when they say , "you get what you pay for huh?!" Lol.
Ernesto, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

My stay was terrible, my card was double charged, the room was hot, people making noise all night long, dogs barking even thou they said no dogs allowed. Kids running around late and banging on doors couldn't sleep due to all the noise late into the night and early morning
